Hello all

I just updated to 3.0.0.5 and now when I reboot into revocery via Rom Manager I get to the HBOOT screen with the only options for:

BOOTLOADER

REBOOT

REBOOT BOOTLOADER

POWER DOWN

I don't get the usual black background with green letters? From what I've read it should go to the black background but now with Orange letters?

Please advise at what I'm doing wrong. Which option should I use to get to clockworkmod 3.0.0.5

Thanks in advance

A lot of the current ROMS are not compatible with the new CWM and many people experienced the same as you. In RM, scroll all the way down and go back to the previous version.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gnetiv:
The oldest version available is the current one I am on 3.0.0.5. There are newer version .6 .7 and .8? Do you know if those versions will produce the same issue?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gnetiv:
After much reading this cwm3 is causing lots of problems. I've searched the forums for a write up on how to flash back to 2x but haven't found one. Does anyone have a quick write up to get this done either through fastboot or adb?

Thanks

I have a thread in the dev forum updated today that explains exactly what you want.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sitrucz:
I had issues when I previously upgraded from 2.5.1.2 to 3.0.0.5 when I tried to restore a backup made with 2.5.1.2. It restored and got to the point of loading the kernel where the boot animation was animating. It just sat there for about 20 minutes so I pulled the battery and went back to 2.5.1.2 and restored the same backup and it worked. I wanted to see if 3.0.0.8 had fixed restores and I found it hasn't in my case although I do see how others don't have this problem. Just some info before I do a restore I always do a full wipe including boot and system. Oh and I flashed 3.0.0.8 in Rom Manager and the text in recovery is orange. Does anyone know why I can't restore a backup made from 2.x with 3.x recovery loaded?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gnetiv:
Awesome tdiman! Thanks for the write up, it worked. I just needed to enable wipe!
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tdiman:
The only thing I've heard is that it works. When I've had a boot animation that loops like that, the following things have worked for me:

boot back into recovery, wipe the cache, then go to advanced and wipe the dalvik cache. Reboot. Give the boot animation a good 5 minutes before giving up. This is especially needed when going between different ROM versions (e.g. skyraider to CM7, non-sense to sense, etc.) .

Also, did you try booting it up twice after the boot animation loops before reflashing CWM? Sometimes all it takes is a battery pull and reboot. It does happen randomly.

I'm not convinced its related to the CWM version directly because I see that happen all the time randomly. Of course, I'm not convinced its not related either :)
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sitrucz:
First, thank you for your response. I'm not going to spend too much time on this since 3.x is the new standard. I use Cyanogenmod 7 dailys as my daily driver and rEVOlution 2.2 as my sense rom backup. So, if after a restore and rebooting and then wiping cache and davlik and possibly reflashing a froyo kernel, incredikernel 12/20, doesn't solve it I'll just restore from 2.x recovery, upgrade recovery, and then get a new backup. I'll do the same for Cyanogen and call it a day and start using cwm 3.x.

After testing I was unable to restore my rEVOlution rom using 3.0.0.8 from 2.5.1.2. I wiped cache and davlik and flashed a froyo kernel and still no dice. It was strange even though I could only see the boot logo the rom was fully booted as I had voicemails and I heard the voicemail notifications but the home screen never came up. I rebooted and still the same thing. So I reflashed 2.5.1.2 restored rEVOlution upgraded recovery then got a backup. I did the same for my Cyanogen nightly and I'm on 3.0.0.8 now for good. I wanted to pass this on to others. If I want to restore an older backup I'll just restore recovery to 2.5.1.2 and do a restore.

Hi all

I hope I dont get flamed for this one but....

Today, I aquired a Samsung GT-I5800 Android phone.... (Previous to this, I had a HTC Tytn... so not totally ignorant)

Unfortunately, it looks like this phone does not have anything installed on it! All that happens is that it boots to the, 'Android system recovery / Samsung Recovery Utils - for BML'

I have looked around for the answers to the following questions but have not yet found any!

1 - How do I get a ROM on to the unit?

2 - Is it possible to so it by SD Card? Does it have to be USB?

3 - What can I install - what version should/could I put on it?

Please be gentle - its my first venture with Android!

Pete

hi use the Q & A which is a sticky or the general section to ask this

1.you use odin. There are a lot of tutorials here just look.

2. Simply download them on your mobile or on your pc. Then install it. Just type the app you want into google and download one file^^

Hope i could help you

first of all try wipping data (factory reset) and cache partition from the Recovery Utils menu.
[Nexus One Android Development] nocturnalmike:
Well heres some bad news...I was working on Version 5 of my rom. Completely bricked my Nexus one.... Tmobile gave me a decent upgrade/trade in so i got the New Galaxy S 4g... I will leave Versions 3 and 4 of my rom up for everyone to enjoy an further it to bigger an better things. I will no longer be able to support or answer any tech questions since i do not own a nexus one anymore. Its been fun

_______________________________________________________________

3/3 5:45am Finally Ive finished testing and making sure the GRI40 is running smooth an flawless, Sorry it took so long to test, but it seems i hit my data cap of 5gigs in less than 8 days so it was slow on testing HSDPA speeds but thats all worked out now on my friends t-mo sim card i hit 4.5MB/s

Rom features: A2sd set up on first boot. If you dont want it dont set a Ext3 partition

Rooted with SU+busybox, Davik-Cache on SD, Deoxed file system, Zipaligned for ram. Few other things i cant remember because i spent 12 hours tryin to figure out why my data was so slow before i realized they capped me. This version is without the TB alerts. V3.1 with trackball alerts will be posted up here very shortly since trackball alerts will not work with A2sd because it reads trigger files.

For your complete an easy 2.3.3 GRI40 flash :D

Use Hboot to flash radio image

V3.Trackball Alerts are here at last!!! i would like to thank the creator of Light flow for allowing me to cook in the lite version of his app, The light flow app is probably the best trackball alert ive ever seen, Allows you to set trackball color to the type of alert it is. i used this app all night on my first version of the GRI40 and loved it so much i had to email and ask if i could use it. so yes i got permission from him to cook his app in. all the features of the rom are same as V3 without. Managed to get A2sd working with trackball alert app after i had already cooked the first one up. so take your pic, you can have trackball alerts or just the regular GRI40 :).. Also did a internal task killer mod on this V3.1 which in turn SHOULD free up more ram my processes status is showing 285MB of free ram so ENJOY, Feedback is always welcome, use Radio image above if you want.

Reserved...

I took down V4 due to many issues with it, started from scratch on this V4.1 build, added Spare parts, Terminal, and Adobe flash player. Removed Books Apk and Amazon Mp3. Fixed Camera issue that plagued V4 Should also be flashable from Clockwork Mod. IF not use Ra passion please to flash. Also took off Light flow TB alerts as stock google TB alerts seem to be working with this build.

Rooted, Busyboxed, Zipaligned, deoxed, and all the other flavors from my previous rom builds.

new an improved V4.1

Gone back to school support an updates will slow down majorly, but please feel free to download mod, and make these roms better than i made um :)
[Nexus One Android Development] malikadnanm:
quick q, how do u enable a2sd? just make a ext3 partition? or do i have to run some commands as well
[Nexus One Android Development] chromiumcloud:
thanks for doing this!

Was there a separate radio in the 2.4 dump, cuz I missed that fact?
[Nexus One Android Development] malikadnanm:
Btw this rom is real quick. I'm loving it

I dont have such script, but you can take a look at this Build from Superatel, GB 2.3.3 with track ball wake working here (i'm running it-very smooth and stable). Perhaps you should ask him for Trackball wake solution :D

Anyway, thanks for your time building this job.
[Nexus One Android Development] bryanchapman9999:
Just to let you know, flashed ver2 over ver1 with cache and dalvik-cache wipe and all is great!

Took a while to boot but a2sd all setup nicely now.

+1 for trackball wake

Anyone tried trackball alert ?

Many thanks

How is the battery life and USB transfer speed with this ROM?
[Nexus One Android Development] malikadnanm:
Can I ask how u set up a2sd? And smali patch with trackball alert and a reboot and trackball alert works perfect
[Nexus One Android Development] nocturnalmike:
Usb transfer speed is actually pretty fast, actually shocked me since i still use USB 1.0 and battery life is still being watched, seems to be pretty great life though :)
[Nexus One Android Development] rockuman_ex:
should we use ext2, ext3 or ext4?

thanks
[Nexus One Android Development] nocturnalmike:
Ext2 or ext3 is fine, ext4 is still unsupported on first boot, my phone automatically made a ext2 partition at 512Mb no swap an set it all up for me. so just try that first then if you want more, reflash it with a bigger partition set up :)
[Nexus One Android Development] bryanchapman9999:
Did nothing to setup A2SD, it does it automagically :) Took a while to boot though. This was after flashing v2 over the top of v1.

Thanks for the tip on trackball alert

[Nexus One Android Development] nocturnalmike:
Well ive spent the last 7 hours cooking up 50 different roms trying to get a working trackball wake, i had ONE working trackball wake but it seems to disable all the other hardware buttons, so if anyone has ANY idea on how to do this please shoot me a message, hope all are enjoying the rom till i can get this trackball mod working :)
[Nexus One Android Development] meechto:
Sounds great ;) Could you please paste the MD5 Hash next to the download links? :)

Edit: Didn't have the patience to wait for the MD5 Hash ;) So downloaded and installed the ROM. Quick boot as said in the OP. Looks pretty good so far. Haven't tried it out extensively though. As of now, I found the USB transfer speed to be pretty decent. Not the best that I have experienced so far but definitely better than the other Gingerbread ROMs using the stock kernel. The Camera worked fine as well. Though I can not ascertain that it is 720p as I was not able to download the file to my PC. While accessing the Camera folder over USB, Windows7 says that the folder is either inaccessible or corrupted. Any idea why so? I was able to access the folder on my phone and the file played well. Will update more about the ROM as and how I use it. Thanks, buddy :)

Edit: One random reboot after restoring an application using Titanium Backup :(

Edit: I was able to access the Camera folder on my phone from my PC after restarting the phone once. Also the video is indeed 720p recorded at 12 fps.

I have tried quite a few Gingerbread ROMs out there and this one is just what I needed - plain vanilla stock ROM patched with the Apps2SD script.

Looking forward to the track ball awake and battery percentage. Will report regarding battery life after a few hours.

Edit: One more random reboot after unplugging the USB cable from the phone :(

Edit: One more reboot while copy data from phone to PC over USB :(
[Nexus One Android Development] breezethrusd:
flashing this right now. Will report later tonight or tomorrow
[Nexus One Android Development] malikadnanm:
That's odd, I haven't had any reboots. This is the best and fastest rom out of all the gingerbread ones. Great job dev
[Nexus One Android Development] nocturnalmike:
damn dude, sorry to hear bout ti randomly rebooting on you, i hope it was just a bad flash with you an nothing else thats too serious, but ill look into it
[Nexus One Android Development] nocturnalmike:
okay i looked at a few logcat files from when i was testing it, the random reboots are from the caches not being completely wiped out before the flashing, its conflicts between this rom an your old one, just go back into recovery, leave the rom on there but wipe the caches 2-3 times just to make sure you get a good install :)
[Nexus One Android Development] willzz:
So far its looking nice n smooth no reboots for me! Thanks
[Nexus One Android Development] malikadnanm:
v2 can't be flashed through clockworkmod recovery. can you fix that please? thanks
[Nexus One Android Development] nocturnalmike:
I wouldnt even worry bout V2, im working on V3 right now which is complied from the google OTA of 2.3.3 :) its gonna run smoother than v2 and should be flashable over both clockwork an RA. but did you try on V1 downloading rom manager and flashing the Gingerbread clockwork Mod flasher? i know it sounds simple an obvious but that had me stuck for 2 hours
[Nexus One Android Development] malikadnanm:
thanks for the reply. i had v1 working. i was also able to download rom manager and flash the clockworkmod recovery. i'll wait for your version 3 now. i can't imagine how you can make this any faster, it's already running circles around all the other builds. can't wait. thanks again for ur work
[Nexus One Android Development] nocturnalmike:
In Rom manager theirs a option to flash a different recovery tool, which is what i did to switch between froyo an ginger, its RA recovery or something to that effect, i actually like it a lot better than clockwork. its got more options an seems to do better flashes. :)
[Nexus One Android Development] overground:
He'll update when it's ready....stop asking.
[Nexus One Android Development] malikadnanm:
Shoot, didn't even see that option. Thanks ;)
[Nexus One Android Development] meechto:
I did wipe everything (factory reset) thrice before installing this ROM. Nevertheless, I wiped the Dalvik cache thrice again last night before going to bed. Let's see how it behaves today ;)

Edit: It's more than 12 hours since I rebooted manually after clearing the Dalvik cache and my phone hasn't rebooted randomly :) Hope it stays that way from hereon ;)
[Nexus One Android Development] slowpc:
Can't wait to try this out from the positive reports I am hearing here.
[Nexus One Android Development] nocturnalmike:
nice to hear that my cooking has been successful the new build is even better tryin out a few mods to make it easier on the ram enjoy the rom
[Nexus One Android Development] king23adrianc:
so no trackball alert and trackball wake yet??
[Nexus One Android Development] nocturnalmike:
every trackball wake script ive tried has bricked the phone. trying to keep the system files as "stock" as possible, but on that note yes i do have one with trackball alerts running and one that without. they will be posted as soon as i get home.
[Nexus One Android Development] rockuman_ex:
Do your roms include radio? If yes can we have one without?
[Nexus One Android Development] nocturnalmike:
Im not adding the radio to this build, for those who do want the radio, i will be posting a Hboot flash zip for the radio
[Nexus One Android Development] nocturnalmike:
sounds good, hope you enjoy it :)
[Nexus One Android Development] meechto:
Downloading it right now ;)

Could we please have the MD5 Checksum next to the download links in order to ascertain uncorrupted complete downloads. Thanks :)
[Nexus One Android Development] nocturnalmike:
Posted it up, enjoy :D
[Nexus One Android Development] meechto:
Thanks, nocturnal :) But this is not what I was referring to. You calculate the MD5 checksum using a program like HashCalc on Windows or by running the following command on Linux

md5sum <file_name>

For e.g.

md5sum Nocturnals2.3.3slim.zip

will give you 4fd946b165881573ca18b8a55bf6a04e

md5sum nocturnal2.3.3 GRI40 ASOP.zip

Haven't completed downloading yet so cannot paste the MD5 for this one.
[Nexus One Android Development] nocturnalmike:
ahh okay, This is only my 3rd rom ever but im learning Lol :D
[Nexus One Android Development] meechto:
No problem, dude ;) We all appreciate your hard work and determination :) As already said in one of my earlier posts, this is the best Gingerbread ROM of all the others out there. You rock!!!! :D
[Nexus One Android Development] nocturnalmike:
thanks, the one im doing now with the trackball alerts, IF i did it right, the internal task killer for android should be freeing up an extra 8mb-12mb in ram we will see how this one turns out. and i will run the md5 checksum lol :D
[Nexus One Android Development] meechto:
Sounds awesome :) Awaiting with bated breath.... :D
[Nexus One Android Development] freddylam:
i was trying to flash the rom but the same error keeps occuring.

While i flash the rom, no matter v2 or v3

it said:

E:Board does not support mtd utils.:E:Failure at line 110:

write_raw_image PACKAGE:boot.img BOOT:

Installation aborted.

i'm quite sure that i've wipe everything before flashing...

and the H-boot version is 0.35.007

while the Radio is 5.08.00.04

anyone has any idea about what happened?

reli wanna try this rom

Thanks a lot in advance
[Nexus One Android Development] freddylam:
just tried the newly updated TB version

md5 checked and it's correct...

error persists but the line no. changed from 110 to 111
[Nexus One Android Development] nocturnalmike:
when i flash it over i do wipe everything 3-4 times just to be completely sure and redo the partition on my SD card, i dunno why its throwing an error up but its flashing fine for me with the new Hboot. ill keep looking into the error an hopefully be able to figure out why its doing that.
[Nexus One Android Development] freddylam:
btw, i'm using CWM v.2.5.1.4

does it matter?
[Nexus One Android Development] nocturnalmike:
actually i wouldnt think so, but i use the RA flasher provides better wipes and flashes, but thats my opinion. im still looking at the logcat and not one error for me. id try the other flasher just to be sure

Question, the kernel is based on stock 2.3 ? Why is it labeled 2.4 in settings..

Also, what makes this rom better than other GB roms?
[Nexus One Android Development] malikadnanm:
Try it and you'll see. Its faster than any other GB rom. Even the stock OTA one.
[Nexus One Android Development] jamespwolpert:
Which is the most recent release? V3? or that first link at the top? sorry for the noobish question.
[Nexus One Android Development] nocturnalmike:
Both V3's were made back to back at the same time pretty much, just tested a few hours each so got uploaded at different times only thing different is the trackball alert app i was allowed to cook in. the top one is for people that rather run a patch, bottom is for the command line lazy
[Nexus One Android Development] fkananeh:
Hey nocturnalmike

Does it support ext4 sdcard?
[Nexus One Android Development] nocturnalmike:
ext2 and ext3, ext4 is IFFY you could try it, i just dont have the option in my recovery flasher to partition to ext4. so ive never tried that format, i should boot into linux and give it a shot
[Nexus One Android Development] GrossmeisterB:
Can I use an overclocked kernel with this one? If yes, which one do you prefer?
[Nexus One Android Development] nocturnalmike:
If you want to try an overclock kernel I would go with one WITHOUT undervolting on it, the undervolting as far as i know will make android pretty unstable as far as overclocking is concerned i dont think it would hurt it. so hoenstly man as long as its not UV your guess is as good as mine on kernel, ive just always stayed with stock ASOP kernels
[Nexus One Android Development] cedricj:
